I have a Bsc., M.S., and Ph.D. in Computing from the
Department of software at the
Technical University of Catalonia.
I am a Research Scientist at Google.
Before, I was a Research Fellow at the Alan Turing Institute, and
a postdoctoral researcher at the
Database Group at the University of Edinburgh
and the
Computer Science Laboratory
at SRI International.
Research interests:
- Automata theory
- Term unification
- Compressed data structures
- The combination of the above
- Automatic verification/synthesis of:
- Distributed systems
- Cryptographic protocols
